you will need a shorter waterpump the one from Ford Motorsports, an electric fan and modify the tranny tunnel a little. Not too much trouble from what I hear but I havwe never actually done it MiniTruckin' did a feature on it some time back bout a year or so ago you might be able to get a copy from them

I tried to put a 302 in mine. The oil pan and the steering bar hit. I hated it so bad. I could not get the motor low for shit! I almost threw it away right then, I probably would have too, if I had a place to get rid of it......

Maybe I'm just an idiot but it didn't fit for shit!
